Every year, thousands of our compatriots go to hot countries to spend their holidays there. However, there are many who like to relax in Russia, who enjoy the beauties of their native lands and are interested in the architecture and history of their country. Accommodation in hotels or inns is not always profitable, but staying in a boarding house is much cheaper and more convenient.
What is a boarding house?
In Soviet times, sanatoriums were very popular, where citizens with various diseases could stay for a whole month. They received proper treatment there, as well as procedures beneficial to he alth. Unlike sanatoriums, boarding houses do not have a strict daily routine, that is, here the main goal is not to conduct wellness procedures and treatment, but to relax and have fun.
A boarding house is a holiday home that combines the features of a hotel (high level of comfort) and a sanatorium, as additional services can be negotiated with the owners of boarding houses (he alth massages or a jacuzzi and much more).
Moscow's boarding houses are in great demand due to their location and a wide range ofservices.
Features and differences from sanatoriums
Usually boarding houses are located in forest park areas or on the seashore, next to major resorts. The main criterion for choosing a place is the presence of picturesque landscapes and, of course, clean air. Unlike sanatoriums, boarding houses do not have their own medical base, but they offer interesting excursions and tours of city attractions. And if the boarding house is located next to the mountains, then a trip to the picturesque mountain peaks is guaranteed for you.
If we talk about the capital's boarding houses, then many of them are located in the immediate suburbs. Usually boarding houses in Moscow and the Moscow region are two- or three-story houses located in the forests. They have many separate rooms with all amenities, the territory is fenced and guarded. You can book a suite or a standard room, the difference is that class "A" rooms are equipped with eco-friendly furniture, air conditioning, a refrigerator and a jacuzzi bath.
